Operator Bundle turn off all Authentication

Ops Containers

Is it possible to turn off all authentication using the Operator bundle? We want to use this in a dev environment but do not what to configure authentication until we get to higher environments? It looks like this is not possible based on the tests we have run. Do we have to use the open-source charts to allow this?

We have tried all combinations of kafka.properties to list topics without providing any auth, we just want to leave sasl username and password empty?

sasl.jaas.config=org.apache.kafka.common.security.plain.PlainLoginModule required username=<<sasl_username>> password=<<sasl_password>>;
sasl.mechanism=PLAIN

Yes I’ve since heard that this is possible in Operator V2, it would have been nice if it mentioned that this is the case in your documentation for V1.
